金乃こって牛 — Restaurant in Takayama

Ever since trying this place back in 2015, I am reminded about the tenderness, the full flavours of hida beef. On my recent trip in 2023, I was able to relive the flavours that I remembered from my first trip. Hida beef is one of the prized beef in Japan and there is a reason to it. The fatty marbling of the beef means the beef is juicy and tender. The warm sushi rice compliments nicely with the beef as the beef melts in your mouth. The sauces adds flavour but doesn't overpower the uniqueness of the hida beef. The last part of the surprise is the edible plate which is a rice cracker, which the sushi are served on. Putting nothing to waste. The street is wide enough for you to find a place to start savouring the sushi. For those with more patience, there is a dine in area next to the shop with chairs and tables. There's also a bar to order drinks from. Definitely worth a visit, or two or three. We had three in three days and made sure to pass the shop when we were in...

This is probably one of the highlights of Takayama if not our most recent trip to Japan. Hida beef in all its glory.

We tried a few other hida sushi’s but this was next level good. It tastes just as good as it looks! Went back a few times in the few days we were in town!

It just a few streets away from the busy lane and it is well worth it!

A must try if you are visiting. Option C is a great choice if you want to...

Absolutely delicious! Tried the Hida beef served on a crispy rice cracker — it was tender, flavorful, and buttery. The texture contrast between the soft wagyu and the crunchy cracker was amazing. The staff were friendly and quick, and the little stand had such a charming Takayama vibe. Perfect snack while exploring the old town — definitely...
